Summary

The Margaret is significant as a building that embodies the distinctive characteristics of a style of architecture, as a type of apartment building, as a representative work of a local master architect, and a representative work of a master contractor. It was built in 1916 as a 21 unit apartment building in North Omaha, Nebraska. The Margaret is a wonderful example of Jacobethan Revival architecture, one of the many period revivals common between 1880 and 1930.
